The 54th World Wide SketchCrawl will take place on Saturday January 28.Below is the schedule for the day.

10:30am, at Les Grands Voisins, 82 av Denfert Rochereau, Paris 14.It is the site of the former Saint-Vincent de Paul hospital.We will meet inside the building named "La Lingerie", which operates as a café (it is the building on the right after entering the site). We will draw outside or inside according to the weather !

12:30pm, lunch at Chez Papa for those interested at 130 bd du Montparnasse. A room in the basement will be reserved for us. Dishes starting at 10€.

After lunch (or starting at 1:00pm, opening hours), we will only have two steps to take to arrive at the postal building adjacent to the restaurant. Before it is converted into housing units, the building is home to LAB14, a project bringing together thirty artists from the world of street art.The entry fee is 2€.

5:00pm, closing meeting at My Baar, at 152 bd du Montparnasse where we will share our results of the day.

The SketchCrawl is open to all, participants old and new, beginners or not. No registration is required, you only have to show up on D-day at the meeting points. (But if you have a Flickr account, feel free to confirm that you will be present!)

It was a wonderful SketchCrawl to kick off the new year.The turnout was great. I did not count, but based on what I saw, but I'd estimate that at least 50 people participated.I missed the morning stop at Les Grands Voisins, but I made the afternoon trip to LAB14. An unconventional choice to sketch, I thought beforehand. But at the end of the day, I had a pleasant experience taking part in the "sketcher invasion" of the art space and immersing myself in something rather different. And ephemeral!Thanks to Agnès and others who organized the event.
